175658799à Paris: Imprimerie Royale 1756. Fine. Imprimerie Royale à Paris 1756 - 1758 20 x 26 cm 2 volumes reliés The rare first edition of these two volumes published two years apart the continuation of which would never see the light of day. With one frontispiece and one large folding genealogical chart. Copy with the arms of Louis XV stamped on the boards and his cipher repeated on the spine a presentation copy. Contemporary full marbled brown calf bindings. Spine with raised bands decorated with Louis XV's cipher repeated four times with angular fleurs-de-lys. Red morocco title and volume labels. Armorial boards. Triple gilt fillet frame on boards. Headcaps restored. Several splits along the upper joint of volume I and volume II. Corners and certain areas of the leading edges restored. Lacking the right corner of the first endpaper. Very faint dampstain trace in margin extending onto text from page 217 to the end; from page viiij to xxxviij in margin; similarly on the rear endpapers of volume II. Despite the mentioned defects a rare copy with the arms and cipher of Louis XV. The work contains a long introduction that clarifies Chevalier d'Arcq's project as a historian. His critical method of examining texts is scrupulous he rejects what is not proven and openly aligns himself with the most reliable hypotheses. This method and his work were praised by Le Journal des scavants which reviewed the first book in 1756 then the second in 1758 with numerous compliments notably on the author's elegant style and his way of creating a vividly colored narrative from stark facts. Beyond history and geography the author seeks the essentially military aspect and shows how wars between victories and defeats have shaped the geography of peoples and precipitated the end and birth of kingdoms. Volume I deals with Greater and Lesser Armenia Cappadocia etc. the second with the kingdoms around Pontus Phrygia Paphlagonia Heraclea Pergamon. Although the work treats a rare ancient history and its reading is fascinating the book did not meet with success and the editorial project was not carried through to completion.
